Is it pure coincidence that, shortly after Trump left office with
ALLL that classified information, foreign informants and spies
recruited by America began
dying in alarming numbers?
And was Trump's main goal in stealing those classified documents
meant to shake America's confidence among its allies? Surrre
seems like it now.

In 2016 Trump promised he would eliminate the federal deficit in
8 years. What he probably meant was that he would destroy the American
government in 8 years and, as dictator, declare the debt someone
else's problem.

If the world had perfected solar power very early on in its technological
history the very idea of destroying the environment and poisoning
the air employing the combustion of a poisonous liquid would have
been deemed ludicrous. Preposterous even.
But we understand how ridiculous it is now and are racing to amend
that mistake. (Side note: We would be better off powering our vehicles
with hydrogen but, for now, batteries will do.)
There is certainly
room in this world for the use of refined crude oil as a lubricant (though
plants surely could provide enough industrial strength lubricant
had the Earth not become saturated with the stuff due to natural
processes) but its profligate use to just drive one's land
yacht
to the Piggly Wiggly
for some
canned
cheese
is
absurd.
What does this have to do with today's cartoon? Only that today's
easily-accessible, commercially available proteins, I.E. meat
on the hoof, is the crude petroleum of the
dinner table. Its overuse is just as bad for the health of our
environment, and ourselves, as anything from under the sands of
Saudi Arabia. The introduction of plant-based proteins is, in a
sense, the new electric car of the kitchen.
So eating less meat = burning less oil. Or, to stretch the
metaphor further, go full vegan and walk everywhere.
